EL GRAN STAR (8) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by 0.8 lengths over 1400m at La Plata. That continued the good form this campaign, with two wins and two minor placings from four outings. Can measure up again. FANTASY RIM (10) found one better when resuming last start at this track over this distance. Is yet to miss the frame from three starts at this distance, including two wins. Has a high cruising speed. Expected to be in the finish. LINDO PIBE (2) is progressing well this preparation. Opened with a sixth at La Plata two starts back then got the job done by 0.1 lengths last time out over 1200m at La Plata. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is good enough to cope. ALFANITO TOP (4) has filled a minor placing at his last three outings, most recently when second over 1000m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish.
